Chapter 43 If He Had Listened to Me, Nothing Would Have Happened
The summer is hot and the leaves are lush.
Lin Yan saw a thin boy.
He was wearing tattered clothes and kept running forward.
Lin Yan chased after him curiously, wanting to see his face clearly.
In the blink of an eye, a black hole suddenly appeared in front of him and the boy was sucked in instantly!
Completely disappeared from her sight...
I woke up suddenly in a cold sweat.
It turned out to be a dream.
I got up and washed up in a daze, my brain still not fully recovered from the strange dream I just had.
Then I received a call from Zhou Gang.
"Yan Yan, your uncle hasn't come to see you for a long time. He's waiting for the bus in town now! Your uncle brought you some braised vegetables and eggs!"
"Uncle, I also have something to ask you." The last time I met Zhou Jing in Beijing North, Zhou Jing said that Zhou Gang knew the reason why she was abandoned.
During this period, she didn't have the courage to call Zhou Gang.
In fact, I still want to find an answer in my heart.
"Okay, okay!" Zhou Gang's voice was friendly, yet a bit polite. "Yan Yan, I'll call you when I get to Longping. By the way, will this disturb your work?"
"No, uncle." Lin Yan said, "Just come to my company and wait for me. I'll take you to lunch at noon. I'm hanging up now. I have to pack up and go to work."
"Okay, then wait a minute..."
Lin Yan was in a hurry, and she hung up the phone before Zhou Gang finished speaking.
I thought it was just a normal call, but unexpectedly something went wrong.
Two hours later, she received a call from Xing Yu.
A solemn voice came from the other end of the receiver.
"Lin Yan, come downstairs quickly. Something happened to your uncle."
Lin Yan's mind buzzed, and she asked calmly while rushing out.
"What's going on? What happened?"
"Your uncle was in a car accident. The accident happened at the fork in the road in front of your company. I'm at the scene now, please come quickly."
Lin Yan didn't know how she ran all the way there.
She only remembered that the wind was so strong beside her ears that it made her mind go completely blank.
A few minutes later, she finally arrived.
There was a large crowd of onlookers standing at the scene.
She took a deep breath and prepared herself mentally.
Xing Yu had come to her side without her knowing when: "The ambulance is on the way, it's okay..."
Lin Yan couldn't hear anything at this moment.
He pushed his way through the crowd and squeezed in.
The horrifying scene almost made her faint.
Five meters ahead, in the green belt, there was a motorcycle lying on its side, emitting white smoke and falling apart.
The owner of the car fell beside the motorcycle with his eyes wide open, his neck broken.
It looked like he was no longer breathing.
And Zhou Gang was lying on the zebra crossing.
I don't know where the blood came from, but it dyed his weathered face and the navy blue polyester shirt he always wore red.
Lin Yan walked forward slowly, not knowing what she stepped on.
There was a crisp sound.
Looking down, I saw eggs scattered all over the floor...
His legs felt like they were filled with lead, unable to lift or lower them, and he could only kneel down helplessly in front of Zhou Gang.
She wanted to shake him, but her hand fell on Zhou Gang's clenched pocket.
The braised food in her pocket had spilled out, mixed with a strong smell of blood, stimulating her senses like a sharp dagger.
She opened her mouth and squeezed out a sound with great effort: "Uncle..."
No response was received.
Lin Yan grabbed Zhou Gang's arm tremblingly, her thoughts were confused and her speech was incoherent.
"Uncle... wake up... you... don't sleep... didn't you... come to see me... I... I'm here... you... open your eyes and look at me..."
She had no idea when the ambulance arrived, as her eardrums had blocked out all external sounds.
She just watched with lifeless eyes as Zhou Gang was carried into the ambulance by several people in white coats.
She struggled to stand up, and suddenly felt dizzy.
The moment she closed her eyes, she saw a black shadow rushing towards her.
Woke up in the hospital.
Xing Yu's face jumped into her eyes.
Her hand was held tightly, and a concerned voice came into her ears: "Lin Yan."
The warmth of her hand gradually brought her back to consciousness, and the image of the river of blood flashed through her mind again.
She suddenly sat up from the hospital bed and grabbed Xing Yu's hand tightly.
"Where's my uncle? How's my uncle? Where is he?"
Xing Yu pressed her shoulder: "Lin Yan, calm down first. Your uncle is still trying to save him."
Lin Yan threw back the quilt, ran out of bed barefoot, and rushed out of the ward.
Xing Yu quickly followed.
The light at the operating room door was still on.
Lin Yan saw An Chunfang from afar. She was squatting in front of the operating room door with tears streaming down her face. She looked so desperate as if the whole world had collapsed.
Seeing her, An Chunfang suddenly rushed forward like a ignited cannon, raised her hand and slapped her hard.
He took out all the grief and hatred in his heart on her.
"Lin Yan! It's all your fault! It's all because of you! If your uncle hadn't insisted on coming to the county to see you, how could the car accident have happened? You're such a jinx! Such a jinx!"
Lin Yan stood there numbly, as if under a spell, unable to cry or shout.
Her mind was blank, with only An Chunfang's angry voice echoing in her ears.
After venting for a while, An Chunfang seemed to have used up all her strength and let her hands hang weakly to her sides.
She closed her eyes and shook her head slowly, her expression unable to conceal her grief: "I told your uncle when he went out, don't go to see you, don't go to see you! But he just wouldn't listen... He even had to come here when he quarreled with me... If he had listened to me... nothing would have happened..."
An Chunfang's tears burst out, falling one after another.
At this time, the door of the operating room opened.
After several hours of surgery, the operation was finally over.
Lin Yan and An Chunfang rushed over almost at the same time.
"Doctor, how is my husband?" An Chunfang asked with a worried look on her face.
The doctor took off his mask, his expression solemn.
"The patient's condition is not very optimistic. The car accident hit his brain, causing severe cerebral hemorrhage. Although a craniotomy was performed to remove the intracranial hematoma, brain tissue damage has already occurred. Whether neurological function can be restored depends on the patient's own condition."
"If they don't wake up within fourteen days, they can basically be considered brain dead."
When she heard the word brain death, An Chunfang's shoulders began to tremble again.
Then, with trembling hands, he took out his cell phone and called Zhou Feiyue who was far away in northern Beijing.
Zhou Gang was sent to the intensive care unit and was not allowed to see anyone. People could only look at him from afar through a layer of glass.
Looking at Zhou Gang with tubes inserted all over his body, Lin Yan felt guilty like a knife, cutting her body repeatedly.
After an unknown amount of time, someone held her hand.
She left in a daze with a force.
When she regained consciousness, she found herself sitting on an iron chair in the hospital corridor.
She looked at the man in front of her with empty eyes, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't focus.
She could only vaguely feel that he was squatting in front of her and putting shoes on her.
Lin Yan leaned back weakly and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Xing Yu, please go... I want to be alone..."
